Does the DMV do their own driving test?

Taking california dmv test with driving school helps or not?

• Hello, I have been taking driving classes from a driving school in san jose , california. My driving school instructor says that If i go to take the test appointment on my own and take the test in my own car then the test lasts for 1/2 and hr and is more strict BUT if i take the test appointment via driving school and take the test in the driving school car (the driving school will charge $100 for this), then the test last for 15 minutes.I want to know if taking the test with the driving school puts me in a better position of passing the test. Do they have some internal commission or some agreement ? OR the driving school is just making fool of me to make money ($100). Thanks

• Answer:

  They want your money ... The driving test is the same for everyone . If not , then something illegal is going on .
